I would so be down to beat the hell out of that money grubbing little bunny!
Super Smash Bros

I just had a hilariously crazy thought. With Nintendo seemingly entering the world of 'free-to-start' gaming with Steel Diver 2, Badge Arcade and Miitomo, what are the chances that Smash 5 may get a character to represent this? And if so, i think Baito-kun (the bunny rabbit from badge arcade) would fit this really well. It would be like the Wii Fit trainer of Smash 5. I'm sure Badge Arcade will stick around for the NX so he will be relevant still and no one will suspect it.
Except free-to-start games are not something at all new to Nintendo and it's something that they've done for a while. See: Pokemon Shuffle/Rumble World, Pushmo something or other. If anything, Mallow from Pushmo would make more sense than that stupid-ass bunny.
Also, wii fit trainer wasn't about representing a segment of their games, it was about representing one of their best-selling ideas of an entire system generation.

Devlopment of Smash 4 started in 2012, before any of those came out. You have to think of it in that context because to the Smash Bros series it is a new thing. Also i compared it to Wii Fit Trainer because it would have the same impact in Smash (i.e. the character that pretty much no one sees coming).
The 2 problems i see with Mallo filling this role is that only 1 of his 4 games are 'free-to-start' where as Baito's entire premise is that. Secondly, i think Mallo would make a better Puzzle game rep. It's between him and Lip from Panel de Pon and Mallo is far more relevant.

Was exciting when they added Ryu from street fighter to smash bros back in June. But now Just found out they added Cloud from FF7 to Smash Bros as well. SO much hype!
Here's the video for those haven't seen it already.

Jeez, were you in the Arctic this entire month or something?
-
Welp, looks like Project M has kicked the bucket. They claim it was not a C&D order but who knows….
-
Goodbye playable Lyn…
I'd honestly be more bummed if it weren't for the looming hype of that smash broadcast we're getting this month.
-
I never played Project M that much so I can't say it hits me as hard as others. But it was a cool game.
It also really lost it's edge since Sakurai brought Mewtwo and Roy among other things back (which is really the main reason I played Project M).
But it's contribution to the Smash community surely won't be forgotten
-
I loved the "feel" of PM…..I'm not super-competitive, but I loved the faster speeds (one-time air dodges :3)
I actually did get it originally for Roy and Mewtwo, but I didn't end up getting the newer versions. Something janked up my SD card and made it crash…still! The team worked damn hard on it.

But Mewtwo is vastly inferior in SSB4 tho lol.
And besides that, I wouldn't say it lost its edge due to DLC especially considering they kept on doing a good amount of balancing, tweaking, and extra fan favorite features such as non-annoying stages, an all-star special brawl mode where you could cycle between different characters in the same match, extra different actual costumes rather than just recolors, there was definitely a lot to love about it.
Anyway I'm not too bummed, but it was so sudden that it was more surprising than anything, given that development seemed to have been going full steam ahead for awhile. But ah well, those dudes already invested a crap ton of hours of free labor into the project.
-
I started Project M a while ago due to interest in Mewtwo, but what kept me playing was the vastly improved Ivysaur. I may try to play it every now and then whenever I want to revisit all that sheer power.
-
Someone leaked it faster than i expected but alongside lyn and knuckles there was going to be golden sun's isaac and advance wars' sami
-
Sami looks terrible. Feels more like a custom skin.

Now to be fair, both Isaac and Sami are pretty clearly very very rough and in the early stages of development in terms of movesets in that build, especially compared to Knuckles and Lin who look much, much further along in terms of polish. But yeah at the moment they seem to only have gotten so far as a few different moves and a skin over snake.

At the moment? More like for forever, unless someone in the team goes through with getting people these characters.

Riiiight, dunno why I left that in lol
-
Thank goodness they never get to release Isaac. That would have been such a shame. Christmas came early this year!
-
And I don't have class that day! (so 5 PM for the east coast…..)
-
nooooo I'm not going to be able to watch it :( I have to work right at 5
-
It's gonna be 10pm for me and then i have to record straight afterwards. Fun times.
Also inb4 mercedes-benz
-
lol mercedes benz XD
I have work but I'll be going no-internet the moment it happens so I can get home and watch it with fool.
It's the last Smash Bros direct so we gotta make it count. Also, I'm considering making bingo cards for this…
-
I know lots of people will set their expectations very high…..at the very end of it all....well, someone is gonna be disappointed.
At the very least = Cloud, Chocobo costume, Midgar stage and nothing else. But considering those were used to tease this broadcast, that had to be billed as the "final" one….I dunno, it points to something new we can all sink our teeth into.
I mean I'm certainly not expecting 3+ characters or anything like that, but.....well, it's a sad thing to see Sakurai's wild ride come to an end. The first e3 trailer, the character reveal trailers, the April direct that showed off tons of details about the game, the ESRB leaks, the Mewtwo bombshell, the Ryu/Cloud bombshells....Lucas coming from Nowhere (hehehe).....all of it will be missed.
-
E3 2019. This madness cycle will start again.
-
Since it's the last time we really get to do this, I made a rudimentary bingo card. Not making it pretty because I don't care enough to do so:
!
Let the fear of disappointment begin!
-
Gettin' in on this action!
[hide][/hide]
and for anyone else who wants to join in, I made a template card.

Special announcement:
Palutena's Guidance will now be updated for the current dlc characters.
That's it.
-
Maybe Sceptile will appear in Smash too :ninja:
-
As long as wolf is not the last character revealed again, I'm happy.
-
For me, I think the most thing about Smash is the speculation of who's going to be in. So for it to be over is a huge disapointment for me. But a year of added content has been fun!
-
The biggest Christmas miracle for me would be if Bayonetta gets in…
I can dream, can't I?
Though I would be perfectly happy with Shantae or Shovel Knight.
-
Maybe Sceptile will appear in Smash too :ninja:
Nah. Pokken is more than enough for it, Blaziken will get in Smash before he does.
-
Someone made decent Smash trailers for Shantae and Minecraft's Steve:
!
But even better, are these amazing works of art:
!
-
I'm guessing we'll get 4 characters including Cloud, maybe more. No more than 3 new comers though, including Cloud.
Once Ridley and Dixie are in I'll never ask for another character as long as I live. Once I die however I'll get hype trains loaded for Sukapon.

Why has the idea of Shrek with Wario's moveset never cross my mind? It's so perfect.
Even if they don't take the ballot very seriously, I still want to know how it turned out. Who got the most votes, which ones were really out there, etc.
Part of me is still hoping for Snake to make it in with his MGSV:PP get-up, that way Sakurai can bow out while confusing everyone, and refusing to give an ounce of an explanation. The ultimate troll act. -
We're all forgetting the best possible addition:

I love the Smash community sometimes.
-
Cory was definitely on the top of my ballot.
-
I think Sora will be proably in
-
-
I'm kinda happy there haven't been any leaks yet…. kinda neat to actually have a surprise incoming.

*Yet
Still three more days :(
-
How many days Ryu and Roy were leaked before the official announcement? 1 week, I guess?
And there was no Cloud leak as well. -

And there was no Cloud leak as well.Depends on if you believed it or not but 2 months. The actual footage and 100% confirmation was leaked 1 day earlier.
-
Yea, Roy and Ryu was entirely Nintendo's fault for leaving the data named and ready following the Mewtwo update. It took people no time to find the audio files and character names in there.

And there was no Cloud leak as well.Well… there was no public leaking. I mean, I'm friends with one of the few YouTubers who's reactions were made; so I knew since Tuesday before the director that Cloud was in the game. And no one would've believed it til it was annouced. Like I bet there was a few leakings, but no one took it seriously to really give it traction.
It's also fun to note that Xander the voice of the announcer didn't even record his lines for Cloud til after the announcement to help prevent leaks. And there was many inside of Nintendo of America who didn't know.

So in other words, you know what's coming? :P

http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/12/13/sakurai-fe25/
everyone else is talking about it so i figured i would post it here. An interview with sakurai where he talks about Fire Emblem in Smash, The end of DLC and how and when characters get chosen. It''s a good read.

Fake leak under here. Spoilering it because some are afraid it might end up real.
! Another Direct, another Faker trying to trick people with a "
".
! This one looks kinda cool tho, so I'm sharing it (But it's very, very fake)
! It's neat, but not sure I want 3 versions of Link in the same game…
